Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound fresh chorizo, removed from casings
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium red onion, chopped, plus more for topping
1 small orange bell pepper, chopped
1 small red bell pepper, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 jalapeno, seeded if desired, chopped
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Two 14.5-ounce cans fire roasted diced tomatoes
2 cups low-sodium beef broth
Two 15.5-ounce cans black beans, rinsed and drained

SPICY BLACK BEAN & CHORIZO CHILI



Spicy Black Bean & Chorizo Chili image

This was my first introduction to Chorizo sausage. When I make home-made chili, this is the recipe I use. Adapted from a recipe I got from some magazine years ago. Usually buy my chorizo, but have also made my own. I like that you don't have to be so exact when chopping the ingredients, since it's going to be pureed anyway.

BLACK BEAN-CHORIZO STEW



Black Bean-Chorizo Stew image

This chili-like stew relies on spicy, fresh green chorizo for its bright, zesty flavor. It only takes half an hour to make your own green chorizo, but you can substitute any kind of fresh (uncured) store-bought sausage, as long as it's got a kick. Then add some chopped garlic, along with minced parsley and roasted poblano pepper for the green factor. Serve it over rice, or with corn or flour tortillas on the side. Here are several other dishes you can make with chorizo.

3 large onions, chopped (3 cups)
3 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano leaves
2 teaspoons kosher (coarse) salt
1/2 to 1 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 3/4 cups Progresso™ chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)
1 can (12 oz) lemon-lime carbonated beverage
1/2 cup dry red wine or additional chicken broth

Tips:

  • Choosing the right type of chorizo is essential for this recipe. I recommend using a Mexican chorizo, which is typically made with pork and flavored with paprika, garlic, and chili peppers. You can find Mexican chorizo in the Latin American section of most grocery stores.
  • If you can't find Mexican chorizo, you can use Spanish chorizo instead. However, Spanish chorizo is typically made with paprika and garlic, so it will have a different flavor than the Mexican chorizo.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chorizo. If you overcook it, it will become tough and dry. Cook it just until it is browned and crispy.
  • Don't be afraid to add more spices to the chili if you like it spicy. You can add chili powder, cumin, or cayenne pepper to taste.
  • Serve the chili with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, and diced avocado.

Conclusion:

This spicy black bean chorizo chili is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover chorizo. The chili is packed with flavor and has a nice kick of spice. It is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
